I thought that was Randy who had the Tomahawk.

Just watched it on line it is Randy with the Tomahawk bow, you can see the writing on the limb as he is looking and shooting at the grouse.

I notice a couple of the others had Samick Sages. Britt lives about 3o mile Southeast of me.

I really enjoy these shows. I have watched most of the first 4 seasons. Unless I missed something, I think Mongolia is the first location that any of the contestants have used their bows successfully.
Would have to go back and get a closer look, but one of the guys in this series looked like he had a self bow. He made a nice shot on a grouse with it.

It was Jesse who had the selfbow, and I do believe this is the first season anyone has used a bow successfully.

I love that show and have seen every episode since season 1. If you miss one you can catch up on history.com. It's nice to see all the bows. I don't think I could get hungry enough to eat a mouse--those things carry all sorts of disease. I would probably have to tap out.

not to be negative but I gave up on reality tv when on one of the surviving Alaska shows they were going on about starving if they didn't kill some Sitka blacktail deer & they we're carrying a $3000 weatherby lazermark rifle with a $2000 swarovski scope. I'm sorry but you ain't starving if you carrying a 5 k gun that shoots $75 a box shells. reality tv at its finest. sorry to be negative just how I see it

Yes, Alone and The Last Alaskans are the best reality shows on TV.

"Alone" and the "Last Alaskans" are my favorites. Real, not staged for TV.
timex, I hear what you're saying. When the Kilchers talk about having to hunt for their survival on "Alaska the Last Frontier", it does seem a little far fetched. I still enjoy the show. But I like about anything Alaska.
BIG BEAR, Korth's book, "The Final Frontiersman", is a good read.

It's a lot more real than any Outdoor Channel crap. They won't literally starve, they have a means of contact to get them out. That said, you wouldn't have a show if you didn't have that, as the liability would be immense. I've seen several Samick Sage on a few of the shows. Sure better than any standard network television available today. I'm a Heimo and Edna fan. )

My oldest grandson tried out for the first season of Alone and made it to be one of two final alternates. He was so excited he couldn't stand it. The screening process was intense. He had to fill out an online application, then did a phone interview, after he made that cut, they overnighted him an expensive video camera and had him go out in the woods and stage a survival situation while communicating with the camera. He is such a ham that it went well with that. Finally they sent him round trip tickets to New York and put him and other finalists up in a nice hotel then took them out to some wilderness type area to work with survival experts to demonstrate their shelter and fire making ability and other skills. They threw him in a lake and said, "You have hypothermia setting in and have 1/2 hour to build a shelter and get a fire going." Being an eagle scout he had already done some stuff like that. He had planned to take his Samick Deer Master recurve with him to Vancouver Island if chosen. He was pretty disappointed he didn't get to go. He had gotten to know all of the first season contestants. That show is legit. By the way, it is produced by Left Field productions which also does the Pawn Stars series.

Don't watch much TV but never miss a episode of alone. I think this is the best season yet. Some really good contestants and some pretty decent hunting and fishing. Much more open area and they are more able to move around, hunt fish and trap. Some really good contestants still there and some really good contestants gone already. Really wondering how long this ones going to last. One things for sure. It's gonna get real cold if they stay long enough.

Only thing I find odd is that they have shown at least two episodes when they were woke up by night noises- once a moose and once sounded like elk bugling. Deer swimming the river, odd nobody has went after anything large enough to feed them for a while. Hollywood may have said no to big game hunting....

They can hunt deer. Not moose don't think elk either some one shot at a deer and missed. Grizzly in area and wolves in area. I wouldn't stumble around in the dark and risk a mechanical injury and they have no lights

If they are there at night, they are there in the day. I’d get after them! I really like Mongolia better than other years location

I don't watch much TV either but I do try to catch Alone and any of the Last Alaskans episodes. I've yet to understand why any of the contestants haven't scouted big game and found a well-used trail and built a blind/stand or stalking to kill a lot of meat at one time? Instead of hanging around a shelter all day, that time would be better spent sitting in a blind on a well-used game trail!

a couple are thriving. Several others you wonder why in the world they are there and how they were chosen. Larry is absolutely phycho and may well win because he is a person that in his other episode has acted really crazy but been a stayer. There are a couple of good bow shooters and a fisherman that are doing really well. Thriving and enjoying is the key to staying. The minute anyone starts complaining its over. Except for Larry. LOL/ PS: I love Mongolia. They better get prepped for some real cold though. Lots of smoked meat and fish and a great warm shelter are going to win this/ God bless, Steve

Yeah, time stocking up meat and building a SERIOUS shelter with plenty wood laid up will soon be critical. Leaves are now gold.... we know what comes next. My bet is on Randy. I saw him practicing in the auditions and he can shoot. The other bow hunter that struggles with shooting stuff still only has a tarp up with a two foot gap at the ground on one side. Gonna get cold!!!!

My wife and I just finished binge watching (2-3 episodes a night) all previous 4 seasons and are just short one or two for the current season (Dave just killed a squirrel in the episode we watched last night).
We jumped into watching it when I saw the video for Dave's 10 items. I jumped out of my chair when I saw the Traditional Only arrows, the Woodsman broadheads, and the limb leggin bow camo sleeves.
Looking forward to getting fully caught up tonight.

Dave seems to be a hunter and a good shot unlike a few of the others. It’s a shame he has a problem with killing to eat. I could understand if he was wasting meat but he’s not. Maybe he is having a issue with killing to win a contest with a monetary reward, I can kinda understand and appreciate that. I saw the previews of the next episode where he is hoping to kill a deer so maybe he’s decieded starvation isn’t that great.

on one or two of the episodes there were captions about certain large animals were off limits to hunting. i think the moose is one of them. i recall something about there are 3 types of deer and 2 are off limits. my wife is wondering if Dave is playing for the camera.

I hate those shows when they dramatize the killing and eating thing. I don't know if it is to pacify the audience or what. My god, it's part of life.

No doubt they do some playing to the camera. The show is for entertainment purposes after all.
